Text Quotes
Remembrance restores possibility to the past, making what happened incomplete and completing what never was. Remembrance is neither what happened nor what did not happen but, rather, their potentialization, their becoming possible once again  (The Past Quotes) ... can I tell you something...? I don’t think you’re in love with the past. I think you’re scared of the future  (The Past Quotes) Now think deeply. What have you done with your life over the past year? How do you feel inside?  (The Past Quotes) Not to know what happened before you were born is always to remain a child. For what is a man’s life if it is not linked with the life of future generations by memories of the past?  (The Past Quotes) Huizi would say, never look back to the past. Never regret. Even if there is emptiness ahead, never look back  (The Past Quotes) The past does not only draw us back to the past. There are certain memories of the past that have strong steel springs and, when we who live in the present touch them, they are suddenly stretched taut and then they propel us into the future  (The Past Quotes) Sometimes you are aware when your great moments are happening, and sometimes they rise from the past. Perhaps it’s the same with people  (The Past Quotes) The past always seems better when you look back on it than it did at the time. And the present never looks as good as it will in the future  (The Past Quotes) People really do change. Don’t let anyone tell you differently. That the future does not conform to the past is not the exception, but the rule  (The Past Quotes) I had wanted to live forever as a gypsy girl; I had wanted to live forever as a child, tumbling down a rabbit hole. I had been granted both wishes, only to find immortality was not what it had promised to be; instead of a passport to the future, it was a yoke that bound me to the past  (The Past Quotes) You can’t go feeding your hate on the past, it’s not natural  (The Past Quotes) Why are we so attached to the severities of the past? Why are we so proud of having endured our fathers and our mothers, the fireless days and the meatless days, the cold winters and the sharp tongues? It’s not as if we had a choice  (The Past Quotes) There simply is no way to describe the past without lying. Our memories are not like fiction. They are fiction  (The Past Quotes) She put her head down on the table and cried all the tears that she knew she should have cried in the past year and a half. But they weren’t ready then, they were now  (The Past Quotes) Her heart began to ache, and she felt the numbness slip away. Misery welled up inside her. She clamped down on it, trying to hold onto the deadness that had blanketed her emotions for the past few days  (The Past Quotes) I don’t think anyone ever remembers what they were really like as kids. Adults think they do, but they don’t. Photos and videos don’t capture the real you, or bring back to life the person you used to be. You have to return to the past to do that  (The Past Quotes) It’s important to know the past, but your survival depends on knowing the present  (The Past Quotes) When we think about the present, we veer wildly between the belief in chance and the evidence in favour of determinism. When we think about the past, however, it seems obvious that everything happened in the way that it was intended  (The Past Quotes) The future is meant for those who are willing to let go of the worst parts of the past. When you cannot take two steps without turning around to inspect your footsteps, you are getting nowhere fast  (The Past Quotes) Awareness requires living in the here and now, and not in the elsewhere, the past or the future  (The Past Quotes) So much of the past in encapsulated in the odds and ends. Most of us discard more information about ourselves than we ever care to preserve. Our recollection of the past is not simply distorted by our faulty perception of events remembered but skewed by those forgotten. The memory is like twin orbiting stars, one visible, one dark, the trajectory of what’s evident forever affected by the gravity of what’s concealed  (The Past Quotes) Risks are a measure of people. People who won’t take them are trying to preserve what they have. People who do take them often end up having more. Some risks have a future, and some people call them wrong. But being right may be like walking backwards proving where you’ve been. Being wrong isn’t in the future, or in the past. Being wrong isn’t anywhere but being here. Best place to be, eh?  (The Past Quotes) The world does not move through time as if it were a straight line, proceeding from the past to the future. Instead time moves through and within us, in endless spirals. Eternity does not mean infinite time, but simply timelessness  (The Past Quotes) It’s like that, I guess, when the past come to collect what you owe  (The Past Quotes) The past is dead and buried. But I know now that buried things have a way of rising to the surface when one least expects them to  (The Past Quotes) You have a lot to learn, young man. Philosophy. Theology. Literature. Poetry. Drama. History. Archeology. Anthropology. Mythology. Music. These are your tools as much as brush and pigment. You cannot be an artist until you are civilized. You cannot be civilized until you learn. To be civilized is to know where you belong in the continuum of our art and your world. To surmount the past, you must know the past  (The Past Quotes) The past is a room full of baggage and rubbish and sometimes things that are of use, but if they are of real use, I have kept them  (The Past Quotes) No matter how happy I had been in the past I do not long for it. The present is always the moment for which I love  (The Past Quotes) ... yet a memory cannot be trusted, for so much of the experience of the past is determined by the experience of the present  (The Past Quotes) In the past, I used to think that it is fundamental and natural to have everything. But I realized that is not true. Instead I realized that those are things to be grateful for. After that realization, I became comfortable. Even if I don’t have it I am grateful. Such a realization also made me understand that is a way to love myself  (The Past Quotes)
